A Delightful Day in Ventura at the Ventura Spring ArtWalk, April 17, 2010 ~ by Sheila Estelle

Spending the day yesterday in Ventura was a delightful experience.  The day was spent visiting artisans & photographers alike and meeting a couple wonderful photog friends to photograph with, laugh with, eat lunch with, bond with, namely Karen Vaisman and
Suzanne Gonzalez.

While visiting a special quaint spot, the Bella Maggiore Inn on California Street, we met a couple lovely artisans and their family and friends.  The ambiance was so warm and lovely that we lost track of the hour and must have spent a good 4 hours enjoying the day.

Here are a few pictures to remember this special day ....,
This is a newer artist to Ventura, named Courtney Ellzey, and her mother from left to right.  Courtney, of LZ Photography, had many of her fine art images displayed.




We also met up with Artist, Lindsay Collier and her delightful and colorful artwork.
















A lovely view of the stairwell in the Bella Maggiore Inn.
















Courney & Lindsay, both showing their artwork during the Ventura ArtWalk.


































What a lovely way to display her imagery!  Inside the glass dome is an image from LZPhotography.
















A view from the main show room into a smaller annex showing the art of Courtney and Lindsay, and an ArtWalk guest in the distance.
















A view of the lovely sitting room inside the lovely Bella Maggiore Inn.
















The stunning chandelier that hangs inside the Bella Maggiore Inn, located in Ventura, California on California Street.

I hope you've enjoyed the images as much as I enjoyed taking them!

Blessings & love abundant!
